This is not behind a paywall for me, but if you're unable to access it, send me a pm with your email and I'll send you the pdf. There's also a precis in IFLS: http://www.iflscience.com/plants-and-animals/new-oviraptorosaur-discovered-railroad-construction-site-china.

[amargasaurus cazaui]

Oh this is wonderful....and the skull is nicely preserved and not badly crushed and distorted as is common with so many of the larger oviraptorids, and a cousin to the Citipatti no less!! thanks for sharing this

That skull fossil is beautiful.

A: Incisivosaurus gauthieri; B: Conchoraptor gracilis; C: Wulatelong gobiensis; (no scale) D: Banji long; E: Anzu wyliei; F: Khaan mckennai; G: Citipati osmolskae; (no scale) H: Huanansaurus ganzhouensis (reversed); I: Yulong mini; J: Oviraptor philoceratops; K: Nemegtomaia barsboldi; L: "Oviraptor" mongoliensis. A, B, F, G, J, K, and L are from Lü14; C is modified from Xu et al.27; D is modified from Xu and Han21; E is modified from Lamanna et al.39 (reversed) and I is from Lü et al.25. External narial opening is in red, and antorbital fenenstra is in yellow. Note: The horizontal line projected through the posterodorsal corner of the antorbital fenestra is parallel to the line linking the articular end of the quadrate and the ventral margin of the premaxillae.

I don't know who (or how) to contact about this but someone might want to fix that

You can bet that someone will beef about it and they'll publish a correction. Without checking the specimen numbers, it almost looks like G and J are switched.

G. is the holotype specimen of Citipati osmolskae. J. Is an unnamed species usually just called "Citipati sp." but which was earlier referred to Oviraptor. Maybe they're just going with the oldest label until it gets a real name.
